Novel visual perceptual phenomenon in isoluminant bi-coloured square-wave gratings by Tan, Azaac Wei En

“…We document the physical characteristics of the stimuli that affect the strength of the illusion and the illusory colours perceived, and consider potential mechanisms underlying this phenomenon. In line with our hypotheses, the results reveal that the strength of the illusion varies with the spatial frequency of the grating, and that the illusory percept is motion-dependent. …”

Rethinking the role that the “step” in the load–displacement curves can play in measurement of fracture toughness for hard coatings by Zhang, Xiaomin, Zhang, Sam

“…This paper scrutinizes the “step” and finds that the “step” is a gap artificially bridged up with a straight line and that the “step” size corresponds with the thickness of the coating in testing. …”

Microwave tunable dielectric properties of multilayer CNT membranes for smart applications by Liu, L., Yang, Z. H., Kong, Ling Bing, Yin, W. Y., Wang, S.

“…Dielectric permittivity and tunability of the circular membranes were measured from 0.1 to 7 GHz by using a single-port coaxial line method. The frequency and bias voltage dependent dielectric properties were interpreted based on percolation theory. …”

Fraudulent mediums and miracle-mongers: illusion, concealment and revelation in the works of Crivelli, Greenberg and Houdini by David, Karen

“…This article aims to raise questions and comparisons between illusions found in pictorial language, magical apparatus and parafictions, illustrating the fine line between illusion and material, and concealment and revelation.…”

Understanding liver transplantation outcomes through the lens of its tissue-resident immunobiome by Prosser, AC, Klenerman, P, Lucas, M

“…Tissue-resident lymphocytes (TRLs) provide a front-line immunological defense mechanism uniquely placed to detect perturbations in tissue homeostasis. …”

B-twisted Gaiotto–Witten theory and topological quantum field theory by Garner, N, Geer, N, Young, MB

“…Fundamental to our approach is the systematic incorporation of non-genuine line operators which source flat connections for the topological flavour symmetry of the theory.…”

Masdar City: ‘City of Possibilities’ by Griffiths, S

“…Partly due to the global financial crisis of 2008 and partly due to experience gained from continued assessments of the original concept, Masdar has scaled back the initial ambitions for the city’s carbon and waste targets, as well as the development approach and time-line for the entire city. This, however, may ultimately prove to be the best outcome for Masdar City if it is truly to become a model for sustainable cities of the future.…”

Recognising rotationally symmetric surfaces from their outlines by Forsyth, DA, Mundy, JL, Zisserman, A, Rothwell, CA

“…The results additionally yield techniques for identifying the line in the image plane corresponding to the axis of a rotationally symmetric surface, and for telling whether a surface is rotationally symmetric or not from its outline alone.…”

Swift: poetical repurposer by Cox, O

“…He did so ironically, however, by lifting a line from John Denham's On Mr Abraham Cowley and putting it into the mouth of a hypothetical, ignorant critic elegizing “Swift”: Denham's “what he wrote was all his own” becomes Swift's “what he writ was all his own” (1–2). …”

Public bus transit service modeling and optimization: from conventional to autonomous vehicles by Tian, Qingyun

“…In the first part, this thesis proposes a novel tri-level model for a transit service operation design problem that primarily determines the optimal bus line frequency setting. Unlike the existing studies, the strategy choices of passengers in presence of congested common lines are explicitly considered. …”
